Deciding Morality of Graphs is NP-complete

6 Mar 2013  ·  Tom S. Verma, Judea Pearl ·

In order to find a causal explanation for data presented in the form of covariance and concentration matrices it is necessary to decide if the graph formed by such associations is a projection of a directed acyclic graph (dag). We show that the general problem of deciding whether such a dag exists is NP-complete.
